Wales claimed a 1-0 qualifying victory over Estonia here on Monday to keep Belgium waiting for a place at the 2022 World Cup.

Kieffer Moore’s scrappy 12th-minute goal was enough for Wales to make amends for a disappointing goalless home draw with Estonia last month. Anything other than a Welsh victory would have seen Belgium wrap up top spot in Group E and a spot in Qatar next year.

But Wales, who were without the injured Gareth Bale, kept alive their slim hopes of catching the world’s number one-ranked side, moving to within five points of Belgium with two matches remaining.

Belgium can still secure a finals berth when they host Estonia next month.
